Perché protettore degli innamorati?
San Valentino is known worldwide as the patron saint of lovers. This title comes from some legends below ...
The rose of reconciliation
Valentine, hearing one day the two young lovers quarrel, and they were going beyond the hedge of his garden, he went out to meet them, holding a beautiful rose. The hoary head, her face serene and smiling old man and the pink, held aloft with a gesture of giving it, had the magical power to calm the two lovers in dispute.
Then when he really giving that purple flower, he wanted both of them together to tighten the stem carefully to avoid getting stung and explained the "Cor Unum" of two married people, love was returned as before.
The two then returned to him until, as he desired, was not just the Holy Bishop to bless their marriage happy.
What became known and then a procession was to rely on the support of his family to found.
The Bishop, however, had other occupations to which pastoral care, so settled for this blessing on the fourteenth day of the month. And on the fourteenth day of the month remained, but narrower than that of February, because on that day he went to celebrate his wedding in paradise.
